    Do you think I must be in the military to understand that Canada has allies? Are you from KSA?

    KSA is America's oldest and most loyal ally in the ME since the 1930s. Canada is out of line, but it will pass. No. I am from Alabama, but I lived in Arabia for many years.

    So you think that the US, as just one Canadian ally, would take KSA's side over Canada?

    Alabama is where you live now perhaps, but the question was where are you from.

    Actually, whether they are boycotting the US or not... its been all over the news because Trump has been so petulant and insulting.

    It's a strange world. Most of Europe is siding with Iran.

    We have poutine and strong beer to help us beside lots and lots of bacon wrapped bullets.

    And our small army kicked ass in WW1, WW2 and Korea. Our volontier who crossed the border and enlisted in you army to go to vietnam were also great.

    Iran was in compliance with the nuclear agreement. Trump is wrong on this.. He's putting Israel in a bind, crapping all over the Palestinians and pushing Iran to war.

    Iraq was crippled by 2 decades of war and sanctions before we invaded.. and look at what a bloody mess that turned out to be,

    Draft dodgers like Trump and Bolton are always so keen to go to war as long as YOUR sons and grandsons do the fighting.

    Defiling Muslim bodies with bacon is nonsense.. They don't care about that.

    What sites were off limits for inspection, and where would nuclear weapons be stored or researched?

    I'm just poking fun at the folks who don't know how outnumbered Canada actually would be.

    He isn't. The Prime Minister isn't the commander in chief.

    Their murder rate is as low as it is because a lot of them have never seen another human.
